Introduction - The Man - The Conflict Between Science, Philosophy and Religion in Dr. Bascom's Time - Dr. Bascom's Contention that Mechanical Evolution is incomplete - Spiritual Evolution and the Modification of Religious Beliefs Resulting from this Conception - Constructive Realism / Science of Mind / "unity of mind and matter" / "the world is the product of God's thought" / The Solution of Philosophical and Religious Problems - Dr. Bascom and Present Thought - Contents -

Dr. Bascom's view of evolution and the modifications in religious beliefs that follow from it, which I have sought to summarize in the preceding pages, are admirably presented in his book entitled Evolution and Religion, published in 1897. This work gives a lofty, thoroughly rational view of man's destiny. His other principal books on religion are Natural Theology, already noted, Philosophy of Religion, published in 1876; Words of Christ, published in 1883; The New Theology, published in 1891; God and His Goodness, published in 1901, and Things Learned by Living, published by Miss Bascom after the author's death. This last book reviews the experiences of his spiritually eventful life and contains much of moment for right living.

A chapter entitled " The Formula of Personal Life " is a presentation of the doctrine of freedom which in a most inspiring way resolves the conflict of life in favor of life.
